5. What do you absolutely refuse to eat?Basically anything that tastes like liver (liver spread), or has liver in it! I HATE LIVER!! *barf*

6. How many discount cards do you carry in your wallet and where are theyfrom?Only two. One from Duane Reade and the other one is from Macy's. Both stooooolen from my Mom! Haha! :D

7. What was your worst hairstyle decision ever?ARG!!! When I was younger my Mom was always the one who made my hair decisions for me. She always wanted it to short so that it would be like hers!! I hated it!! My hair is naturally curly/wavy so cutting it short was a big no-no!!! I dunno, my Mom is crazy!!!

I AM, WOMAN.

The weaker sex, they call me, but I disagree. My strength is beyond what muscles could conjure, because it lies not in my vessel but in the spirit that it carries.

I may be delicate and fragile that you feel compelled to protect me, but I am strong because I am flexible. I can bend with the wind and it cannot break me.I will cry when I am lonely or hurt, and you may find that pathetic, but I am not ashamed. My emotions may be clearer to see, but it is only because I am true to myself and that is where my strength comes from.

I am a woman and my value is not in my virginity. For what is virginity but a hymen unbroken, superficial like the face? It does not necessarily equate to love. When it is broken by whatever circumstance, it does not mean I am less the woman I was. I deserve to be loved with or without it, because I am a woman and I am more than my hymen. The fact that there is Woman means that the Maker destined her to be penetrated, fated the hymen to be broken. Artfully, cunningly, lovingly she was designed for that purpose, so that Love becomes the wonderful adventure that it is. But remember that is not her only purpose. So when in time from lover’s nest I wake and find that barrier breached, take no pride in your conquest for I am not the spoils of war. Though you have broken what you thought was my gate, you have not broken me.

I am indecisive, they say; that I cannot make up my mind. Perhaps this is so. But remember that I look at the world in a different way. I see the things you may choose to ignore. I can help you see beyond black and white. If you let me. They also insist I am weak, a Maria Clara who faints at the sight of blood. But remember that I bleed with every cycle of the moon. I bleed when my flower opens to bring life to the world. I bleed the first time I make love. In fact, experts would say I have a higher threshold for pain. So you see, I am much stronger than people think.True, I am not perfect. Sometimes you may find me infuriatingly complicated. At other times I am plain and simple. Sometimes I can be the most alluring creature you have ever beheld and then suddenly you wonder where that creature went. But I will not apologize for my imperfections, only for my faults.

I do not believe in Adam and Eve. I believe in their symbolism of you and me, but not in them. I do not believe that I am your downfall. I do not believe that I am the reason for your failure. I do not believe I was created simply to test your faith. Although I could be a temptress if I see it to my advantage, just like you could be a snake if you choose to be. We are human beings and we are complicated that way. Can you imagine what it must have been like for the First Man when he laid eyes on the First Woman for the very first time?

Most of the time, you may not understand me. It is perhaps my nature not to be understood by you at least. You may find yourself constantly wondering what makes me smile. What makes me cry? Where could you touch me to make me tremble? What must you do to hear me laugh? You may even find yourself simply savoring the act of watching me sleep, and then wonder how I manage to captivate you despite doing nothing at all. For that I have even been called a witch in the history books. In fact, up to this day, people could only give labels to things they cannot understand. You will want to study me, search my eyes for answers you know you may never find. All the great artists did not become so without first exploring my nakedness and transforming me into their own idea of what I should be.

I am a Woman.

I am. A Woman.

4. Who are the last five people you called on your cell phone?I'm using 2 phones. One for roaming (Philippine server - Globe) and the other one is Cingular (US). Sadly though I don't receive or make calls using my Globe phone because it's too expesive. I only use it for SMS-ing. I'll just be answering this question using my US phone.1. Mom2. Voicemail3.

KISS. Because I'm a Girl.

Have you guys seen this?

This is my most favorite music video of all time! Actually, this is the only video I liked and the only video that I can watch over and over AND over without me getting sick of it. Eventhough I can't understand the lyrics of the song, I would always end up crying after I've watched it. True love. ♥

3. Who's the most annoying person on TV?ALL THE GIRLS FEATURED IN MTV's, MY SWEET SIXTEEN!! OMG they are just soo effin' whiny!! Spoiled bitchesess who thinks having a great party can brand them for life! They're shallow, pathetic, wannabees' who thinks they're larger than life when in reality they're just nothing! I hate girls like that!

Baby Hazel. =D

My Mom wants me to study English! Not because I don't know how to (obviously!) but because she wants me to have an accent, a "twang." Hehe! :D

Well, at first I didn't want to, but because I have nothing else better to do until school starts in Sept., I decided to give it a try!:D

Tomorrow's gonna be my interview, so they could determine what level I should belong to. The class is gonna be for 2 hours, every weekdays from 2-4pm. Not bad. Atleast I'll get do something productive! :P

Her name is Glori Heizel. Glori because she was named after my Lola (Gloria), which unfortunately passed away 2 months before she was born. Sad, ei? Heizel, because her parents' names are Hector and Liezl. Nice, noh? :)♥ ♥ ♥

2. What other names did your parents consider for you?Oooh, I haven't asked (them) my Mom this yet. As far as I've known, I think they've always seen me as a "Nadine." I don't think there was another name, I'm not sure about this though. Besides, I love my name! I wouldn't want to change itfor any other. Nadine Kristel... :D

It's Morphin' Time! :D

Wahaha. :D The title has no connection whatsoever sa Power Rangers, ha! :DC'mon, see for yourselves! This is F-U-N! XD

I'm starting to like this show, Degrassi: The next Generation. Have you guys heard of it?

It's like OC meets OTH, but the characters are more "Real." Well, real in the sense that they really look like typical high school students, I mean kasi naman, both in OC & in OTH, it's either they look hot or gorgeous or hot&gorgeous, I mean, that's not right! Real people don't always look like a million bucks everyday! Haha! :D Diba?!!! Hehe.. :D

Too bad they just air every weekends, but what's good about it is that every weekend they have marathons! As in, marathons talaga! From 6pm to 6am the next day na! I love it kasi hindi ako nabibitin, unlike yung ibang series na 1 hour lang. Ito 12 hours!! Haha! :D

I love Manny Santos' character ( I bet she's Filipina! Her character ah, Santos kasi eh!), she's my fav among all of them.

Basta, she's cool! She's labelled as the "school slut" but what the hey, she can't help it if guys fall for her, diba?!? Aylaveeeet!! :D

***

Oh, I have permission to use VOX na... Yehey! :)

We can also interact using this so if you want you could also answer the questions! So here it is, my very first QOTD:

1. What time is your alarm clock set for? Do you use the snooze button?Well, I'm not using one right now since school wouldn't start till September for me. But back then I would always set my alarm 45 minutes before the time. So YES, the snooze button is my bestfriend! Haha, I love the feeling of not being rushed early in the morning that's why I give myself time to just snooze lazily in bed, half-awake while half-asleep. I'm not a morning person so I must always give allowances so as not to wake up looking like a grump! :D

DADDY'S GIRL

(I sure am not a big fan of Fathers' Day, frankly because I don't have "him" anymore to celebrate it with). But, what the heck...

For all the proud Dads, the soon-to-be-first-time fathers, the Priests (they're Fathers too!), the bungi Lolo's and even the FAFA's out there. Hehe.. :D

May it be Daddy, Papa, Itay, Lolo or "Pops", I greet you all a

HAPPY,

HAPPY

FATHERS'

DAY!

...we sure are lucky to have you!

And to my dearest Dad,

We may not have celebrated the last 11 Fathers' Day day together, but I know for certain that when that day comes, the DAY when we would finally see each other again... I promise you that we would make everyday a Fathers' Day celebration for us. =D

I love you Daddy and I miss you sooo much. :'D

I want to try the VOX thing that Tricia has on her blog. Kasi naman, it's for days na wala akong masusulat na entry or for days na natatamad ako gumawa ng post! Pag wala akong maisip, I'll just use the VOX-QOTD thing, then poof, instant entry na! Diba!!! :D

I want to TRY to write everyday kasi eh, wala lang for "memories sake", but pano if I have nothing to write about? Kaya naisip ko yung VOX. Hehe, but I will ask for permission first! :D

"Tricia, pwede ba???!!!!"

Hehe.

XOXO!

If our hearts only had faces...

...then mine would have a :'(

I wanted to put a "Boys are stupid, let's throw rocks at them" picture, but unfortunately I couldn't find any. I think this will do for now. Haha.

Hehe, and you know what else I miss?!? Radio Programs!! Especially Magic's!!! I'm an 89.9 baby (I like Wave too but only pag Dreamsounds) and I am suuuper addicted to ALL their shows especially Mo's before! But now, wala na! I've tried listening to them online but their reception stinks!!! Grr!! Can someone please tell the station to get better portals!! Haha!!

Tomorrow's gonna be fun! Marge invited me to go out again, yey! Thankfully, this time I could really go na!! Nothing big though, we're just gonna go watch a movie then eat but, I'm happy narin cause it's been a loooong time since I went out with friends. Last pa yata is when Camille and Mary went here eh! That was nung start of June pa!! Haha. :D I'm excited for tomorrow!!

♥

Comedy: ^_^

A few nights ago, my Mom and I were watching Mean Girls over a local channel. She has a thing for L. Lohan kasi eh, I dunno why but she likes her. So there. The scene was, um remember when the four were having this conference over the phone? Basta, the scene was with Rachel McAdams(QueenBee) and the Stupid Girl(the one who claims she could tell when it's raining using her boobs). The conversation pala went like:

Will update with a better post, soon (maybe tomorrow)! I will, promise!!! :D

PARIS GOES "BAR"HOPPING!! :P

Dear Paris,

It saddens me to write this, as you are by far my favorite heiress! Your top-selling album(?) made you the envy of every karaoke wannabee. You were THISCLOSE to being the most life-like thing in the "House of Wax" and your sex tape entitled, "One Night in Paris" depicted the true cinematic promise of night-vision technology.

But despite of my love for you, there's no getting around on the sad, sad news that today, YOU ARE GOING TO JAIL!!! (HAHA)

You'll spend 23 days in an 8 by 12 foot cell with no Tinkerbell, no Swarovski-swathed cellphone and no designer threads! Your only fashion will be an orange jumpsuit! You'll shower in dripping cold water, and you might even find yourself a cellmate!

To put this your way, PRISON IS SOOO "NOT HOT!" :D

To help you through this, here are some things you might want to consider:

Be open to new friends, my dear bitchy-blonde bimbo! While your cell will be less than half the size of your tiniest walk-in closet, your cellmate could be a notorious drug pusher (which might come in handy for when you leave prison, gets?), or a dirty-old child molester. So be kind to those you meet "inside." Don't treat them like helpers or worse, the paparazzi! This ones' should be easy for you since you've perfected the art of carrying yourself with an aura that demands respect, right?!?!

Hold off the fancy manicures and pedicures, dear! Nobody inside is gonna appreciate them anyways! Dont worry too much though if you think that it's gonna be a bore for you to be locked up! For all you know, you're gonna spend all your time there washing, scrubbing, sweeping, vaccuming, raking leaves or even wiping pukes/shits! Trust me, everydays gonna be far, far different from the other. :D

Unfortunately, the pay inside is a LITTLE different than the nightly $25-$50K you used to make just for showing up at some of the hottest club openings! Prison job pays only 12-40CENTS an hour!!! That's right, CENTS!! As in COINS- those little round metal thingies that people make change with? Oh nevermind, you wouldn't understand anyways! :D

Get ready to talk about Nicole. I'm sure your fellow inmates will ask you about the people in your life, and who will arouse more curiousity than your "brittle-boned BFF?" Next to that, get ready to talk about that sex tape you've been perfecting! :D

Lastly, and most importantly, when the awful prison food and slimy air makes you feel like pouring your cold, dark heart out, be careful who you choose to do it with. You may never know it but there could be AIDS, HERPES or CRABS-infested people inside there. But, I'm sure you've had you're fair share of those already! No pun intended though. :D

So there you go my shallow seductress. I hope these lessons serve you well during your time in jail. Who knows, "Simple Life 6: Life inside Prison" cpuld finally be the highest rater yet!

♥Your hottest twin,

ME! :D

TO THE LEFT, TO THE LEFT!!

Now don't get me wrong, I'm very much happy with how my "lovelife" is right now. Heehee... ♥

Ang mean GRABE!!! Malaking problema ng gumawa nito!! These are not true! I repeat, these are not true! We all know that CSA's the best, diba schoolmates? Nakaka asar naman na may mga ganitong kumakalat.. Tsktsk..

Credit goes to Toni. I got these from her. Pass nyo din sa iba so others can be aware...

Sorry for the delayed posts!! My mom has been on leave for work since Wednesday so I didn't have the chance to properly use the computer since she might be checking out what I was writing. Snoopy eh.. Heehee.. :)

Last Wednesday, Mary and Camille (my highschool BFF's.Ü) visited me here in NY! Haha.. :D Actually, Camille and her family went here for vacation since they're gonna be attending Kuya Carl's graduation from West Point! Nice, no?!?

I picked up Mary from the train station and after going at the mall to buy some drinks, we rode the subway to go to Central Park because that was where we would meet Camille. :D

ANG SAYA, SAYA! :D

It was actually my first time to go to that part of the Park. When we went there kasi, we just saw the Ice skating rink plus the giant Christmas tree (that's on the other side + it was Christmas season then). I didn't know that the park pala was really biiiiig!!!

It never really occured to me that a lot of movies have had Central Park in some of their settings pala. Like Maid in Manhattan, Spiderman 3 (remember the scene where MJ was breaking up with Peter by the bridge? I saw it, yey!), You've got mail, etc.
